It's A Celebration - I got Honorable Mention for Papertrey Contest

This is a card I had submitted to the PapertreyInk April Guest Star Designer contest. I used their It's a Celebration stamp set and all Papertrey papers on this card. I didn't win but I did make Honorable Mention! See it on Nicole's Blog!

I love these flags that include the rope they are strung on. I cut out and popped up every other flag along the line. I cut the stars with my nestabilities using white and Berry Sorbet card stock. I love the deep color of this paper. The designer papers are from the Pink Patterns collection.

You really need to try the Papertrey cardstock if you haven't already - it is a nice heavy weight so the cards stand right up and don't curl or bend.

Thanks for checking out my card today - I'd love to hear what you think of it!

Well, I can't believe this card didn't win either!!! I love your creativity with the flags on the side, and the Berry Sorbet is just beautiful! Guess I need to check out their cardstock that everyone is raving about. TFS your beautiful creations!
